Effi Eitam: Arab Knesset Member Breaks New Record For Treason

From Arutz Sheva: "Knesset Member Effie Eitam (National Union-National Religious Party) slammed Arab MK Ibrahim Sarsur (Ra’am-Ta’al) on Monday night after Sarsur compared IDF soldiers to Nazis and claimed Israel was targeting Arab civilians for extermination. MK Eitam called the Nazi comparison 'chilling' and said, 'MK Sarsur's desecration of the memory of the will never be forgiven, and it will remain a moral stain that will force the Knesset presidency to take appropriate action.' The statement by MK Sarsur was the latest in a series of incidents demonstrating that 'Arab MKs have broken a new record in traitorous behavior towards the state and the IDF,' said Eitam. 'The Arab MKs have again proven their loyalty to the enemy,' he said, adding that MKs who side with enemy elements, such as Hamas, should be removed from the Knesset as quickly as possible. On Monday, MK Sarsur compared IDF soldiers to Nazis after five Arab civilians were killed in Gaza during an IDF counter-terrorism operation. An initial IDF investigation showed that the civilians were not killed by the Israel Air Force strike. Rather, Arab terrorists were carrying a bomb near the family's house that detonated by accident. Sarsur said in a press statement, 'Every day Israel proves that her army is the Nazis’ chief competitor and that it carries out an ideology of extermination.'"

Effi Eitam is correct in every way. There is no way to characterize the actions of Arab Knesset members other than to describe it as treason.
